We are not open on a daily basis.  We are only open for riding on Scheduled days.  If you are looking to only practice, look for events that say Organized Practice on our 2024 Schedule.

  

On organized practice days we have an EMT present, Yellow Flaggers, and the track is prepped.  Groups are broken down by size - it is not a free for all!  Groups rotate every 15 minutes.

What is a Grand Prix and how is it different than a Motocross event?

What is a Grand Prix and how is it different than a Motocross event?

In a Grand Prix participants race for a specified amount of time.

In motocross participants race for a set number of laps.


A Grand Prix runs on the MX track and some trails and pasture lands.

A motocross event runs on the MX track only. 


Grand Prix's have a flag start.

Motocross Races use a Mechanized back fall starting gate.


Riders are not required to take the checkered flag in a Grand Prix event.  They must be scored in at least one lap to receive a finishing position.

**Please Note**

If you have a question on rules please ask at registration.  Some rules do vary from MX events.  

Grand Prix events are not AMA Sanctioned.  


SPECTATORS ARE NEVER ALLOWED ON TRACK OR TRAILS.  NEVER ENTER THE TRAIL SYSTEM!!  


Riders are taken on a "Parade Lap"  also called a "Site Lap" where they go around the course one time so they know what to expect.  They will then immediately return to the starting line and the moto begins.


Please note: To participate in a GP event riders should be at a skill level where they can learn and navigate a course with minimal supervision.  The rider should be able to pick up and start their machine without assistance.  


IMPORTANT NOTE:  To participate in a GP a rider should be able to keep up with the parade lap group.  Once the main group returns to the starting area, riders who have fallen behind receive 2 minutes to make it to the line.  If they cannot make it, the moto will start without them.
